Lycodes marisalbi Knipowitsch 1906

Description

Lycodes marisalbi Knipowitsch, 1906.

White Sea Eelpout. To about 22.5 cm (8.9 in) TL (Mecklenburg et al. 2018). Found at several localities in the Beaufort Sea, from Mould Bay, Prince Patrick Island, to Mackenzie Bay and east to Dease Strait, Bathurst Inlet (Møller 2000). Benthic; depth: 3–335 m (10–1,099 ft) (min.: Møller in Coad and Møller 2018; max.: Møller 2000). Once thought to be a subspecies of Lycodes pallidus, but resurrected by Møller (2000). Specimens identified as L. pallidus west of Boothia Peninsula are misidentified L. marisalbi (Møller 2000). Records from the Beaufort Sea off Alaska identified as L. pallidus (e.g., Mecklenburg et al. 2002) are L. marisalbi (Mecklenburg et al. 2011).
